Welcome to the First Quarter 2021 WillScot Mobile Mini Earnings Conference Call. My name is Christie, and I'll be your operator for today's call. At this time all participants are in listen-only mode. Later we will conduct a question-and-answer session. Please note that this conference is being recorded. I will now turn the call over to Nick Girardi, Director of Treasury and Investor Relations. Nick, you may begin.

Good morning, and welcome to the WillScot Mobile Mini first quarter earnings call. Participants on today's call include Brad Soultz, Chief Executive Officer, and Tim Boswell, Chief Financial Officer. Today's presentation material may be found on the Investor Relations section of the WillScot Mobile Mini website. Slide 2 contains our Safe Harbor statement. We will be making forward-looking statements during the presentation and our Q&A session. Our business and operations are subject to a variety of risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control. As a result, our actual results may differ materially from today's comments. For a more complete description of the factors that could cause actual results to differ and other possible risks, please refer to the Safe Harbor statement in our presentation, and our filings with the SEC. With that, I'll turn the call over to Brad Soultz.

Thanks, Nick, greetings everyone and thank you for joining us today. I'm Brad Soultz, CEO of WillScot Mobile Mini. First of all, I'd like to thank the entire WillScot Mobile Mini team for yet again delivering another outstanding quarter, while at the same time making significant progress towards the key integration milestones that will unlock the full potential of the merger, driving shareholder value for years to come. Due to our strong performance in the first quarter, and strengthening commercial KPIs, we're raising our full-year 2021 guidance to midpoints for revenue, adjusted EBITDA, and net CapEx. While Tim and I will go into further detail during our call, suffice it to say that we're extremely excited about the future. This demand is increasing across our diversified end markets, and our team continues to rise to the challenge to deliver ever-increasing and exceptional value to our customers. Turning to Page 5 of our presentation, I would like to highlight the eight unique characteristics inherent in our platform, and the associated de simplification apparent in our Q1 performance. First, as a reminder, we are a fast-growing leading business services provider, specializing in innovative, flexible workspace, and portable storage solutions. We are the number one provider within this sector and are 5X our next largest competitor. Our position is underpinned by a vast fleet position across 275 branches in North America, and UK, which yields compelling unit economics of greater than 25% Unlevered IRR. Q1 leasing revenues in our North American modular and storage segments were up 6% compared to this time last year on a pro forma basis, which provides great forward visibility based upon this foundation of steady and predictable recurring lease revenues, given average lease durations of nearly three years. Our demand is robust and accelerating, with North American unit…

Thank you, Brad, and good morning everyone. Page 19 summarizes some of the financial highlights from the first quarter, which overall was a good start to the year, and positions us well for the remainder of 2021. Leasing revenues increased 6% year-over-year on a pro forma basis, driven by continued pricing performance in all of our segments, VAPS penetration in our North American Modular segment, and the overall resilience of our lease portfolio through the course of the pandemic. We generated $164 million of adjusted EBITDA at a 38.5% margin, and our flow-through of revenue growth to adjusted EBITDA was over 75%, which is reflective of the operating leverage we have in the business, heading into what could be a pretty interesting growth environment. We generated $91 million of free cash flow and a 21% free cash flow margin, which is consistent with the $350 million free cash flow run rate we spoke about last quarter, and well on our way to achieving our milestone of $500 million of run rate free cash flow by the second half of 2022. We reduced leverage to 3.7 times, mostly through EBITDA growth this quarter, as we opportunistically repurchased $82 million of common stock and warrants. Leverage would have been below 3.6 times without the repurchases. So we're clearly comfortable hitting our 3 to 3.5 times target leverage range by the end of the year and can be flexible to fund opportunities as they present themselves. As Brad discussed, we progressed our ERP migration with cut-over scheduled to occur this quarter. It has been absolutely humbling to watch the organization coalesce around this project, whether legacy Mobile Mini or legacy WillScot in our branch locations, or in our shared service centers, literally everyone is working together to make this cut-over successful. And that…

Thanks, Tim. I, as well, am extremely proud of our Q1 accomplishment. The WillScot Mobile Mini team is unparalleled and continues to raise the bar which will further compound returns, driving shareholder value creation for years to come. I also wish all of you listening today, continued safety, and good health. This concludes our prepared remarks. Operator, would you please open the line for questions?

[Operator Instructions] And your first question is from Kevin McVeigh of Credit Suisse.

Great, thanks so much, and congratulations on the results. Hey, Brad, or Tim, it looks like you increased the VAPS, the market opportunity for the VAPS and if I have the math right, it looks like you increased the amount per unit, but the number of units came down. Maybe just help us understand that a little bit, and then within the context of that, I just want to make sure – and I know that VAPS is $145 million the way you framed it, is this your well opportunity to certify in addition to the $145 million, so we get $180 million total, just if we get to maybe understand that a little bit.

Yes, Kevin, this is Tim. And Page 10 lays out the current state of affairs as it relates to the VAPS and we're incredibly excited, frankly, about the trajectory that we're on. And mind you, this is through a pandemic and through a pretty complex integration. The organization is continuing to drive both core pricing and value-added products. I think it was a year ago when we talked about having approximately a 30% spread between our – the rates in VAPS that we're achieving on new contracts relative to the overall portfolio. We've continued to drive the average rental rate through the course of every quarter last year, and we've maintained that spread. So you can assume that pricing on new contracts as well as the pricing, or the penetration of value-added products has kept pace, or more than kept pace in the case of value-added products. But on Page 10, you see the rate achieved on our most recent contract is up 22% year-over-year. So incredible progress there. And the overall average monthly rate on all units is up 25% year-over-year. So you see pretty good parity between the growth rate on new contracts and the overall portfolio. And that's all just on the North America Modular segment. To your point, there is another $35 million of EBITDA opportunity we believe over time on the GLOs, which fall within the North America Storage segment. And, as Brad mentioned, there is a third opportunity that we're exploring, which would be the introduction of value-added products on the storage containers. So look, this is going to be a multi-year, long-term strategic driver for this business, and there are probably opportunities to expand it beyond what we know today.

It's great, and then just real quick, obviously, the storage pricing just continues to be really encouraging there and improves – it's just that – is that the VAPS? Is that the capacity, ERP, just any thoughts as we're thinking about that against the wonderful outcome?

Yes, Kevin. There's really no VAPS included in that improvement. It's driven by again that continued progress with the GLO pricing, and then early work on the pricing of core containers themselves.

And I'd just highlight, in the United Kingdom, for example, we're getting just tremendous price performance in that business. Under our leadership team there, utilization levels are pushing close to 90%, and the price improvement just in the last three quarters across that business is really remarkable. And I think it's sustainable, and based on when we see results like that, we also allocate capital. And that's an area where we're happy to continue expanding our fleet.

Awesome. Thank you. Thanks again.

Thank you. Your next question is from Andy Wittmann of Baird.

Great. Happy Friday. Good morning, everyone. I guess I wanted to just talk a little bit about some of the business trends in March, and coming out of March. And was hoping that you could frame the discussion of that in terms of – you mentioned some of the order book on the modular side, I don't think you gave the March deliveries over the 2019 level in storage. So I'd be curious to see how that trended. And then, I guess more generally, Brad, if you could talk about how the order book and delivery book – if that's converging to more normalized levels during the depths of COVID as we all probably recall. Orders were great, but some of the deliveries were slowing. Is that gap in timing, or the difference between order and delivery starting to narrow here March-April?

Yes. And Kevin – I'm sorry Andrew, this is Brad. The – very little of my commentary, if any, related to order book, I referenced unit on rent and delivery. So, the March deliveries in storage were at the highest level since, I think, June of 2019. So, extremely strong. The order books in general are very robust. And yes, indeed, the timing with respect to when orders materialize as deliveries are starting to improve. And then that's in both segments.

Got it. Okay, that's helpful. And then, I'm just hoping, you could just talk a little bit more – maybe, this one's for Tim, on the SAP cut-over. I just – if you could talk a little bit about the testing that you've done so far, about the more specific timing that you're looking at, what are some of the key things that you're trying to mitigate in terms of risks, in terms of your operations? I think just having a little bit more detail so we all go into the second quarter cut-over a little bit more eyes wide open would be helpful for everyone's edification.

Sure, and happy to. This is probably the biggest operational initiative that we have ongoing in the company. And it's been ongoing even since before the merger closed a year ago. So the planning and the foundation for this, we started putting in place before the merger closed. We have got a very deep cross-functional leadership team from both the WillScot and Mobile Mini legacy organizations working very well together. And that's both at the corporate level. And this extends all the way down into the WillScot branch networks. If you can think about the employee population, north of 4,000 people, that will be trained, and the reporting that's in place, and all of this has been really our primary focus over the course of the last nine months. We've had a very structured Integration Management Office, and project management structure in place, that team, core team meets daily to monitor the progress of all key workstreams. We meet weekly every Friday morning, except when we're doing earnings calls, with the steering committee to monitor the progress of key milestones. And that's been ongoing again now for almost a year, and we're to a point today where we're ready to execute the cut-over. So we are in the final stages of data testing. As Brad mentioned, there is an organizational-wide training effort going on right now, and we are incredibly excited about some of the operational benefits that will extend into the legacy WillScot organization after this cut-over. If I reflect on some of the things that the Mobile Mini organization does really well, and has for some time, some of the operational efficiencies that they've been able to draw are directly related to the insight they've been able to get from SAP. So we'll have better real-time data visibility, better reporting, better long-term process in place for things like inventory management of VAPS. So really it's – I can't overstate the amount of organizational effort that's gone into this, but I'm incredibly excited about the operational benefits that will extend, once we complete the cut-over in Q2. And as I mentioned in my remarks, I get incredibly excited about what else can we execute. Now that we've demonstrated the ability of these teams to work together, if we refocus all of that energy on value-added products for portable storage containers, as an example, or going deeper into all of our different end markets. So it's a big deal. We've got a lot of employees on the phone listening. So, thank you once again. And let's stay focused and execute at a extremely high level, as we have over the course of the last 12 months.

Great. That's all I have for today. Have a good day, and good weekend.

Thanks, Andy.

Thank you. Your next question is from Scott Schneeberger, Oppenheimer.

Thanks very much. Good morning. Curious, will you just speak on core spot rates in – from the modular assets. You're heading into the seasonal upswing, what are you seeing and how assertive are you with pricing at 12.9%, obviously very strong again? And you said that's something that you can sustain for a few years. And so, just curious what – a little bit more on what you're seeing with the seasonal uptick in openness of customers to take price?

Yes. Scott, this is Brad. As I mentioned, we've achieved double-digit rate growth on the North American Modular now for basically three years, and we think we can extend that double-digit rate growth, both with the combination of core pricing and VAPS. As we've said on prior calls, VAPS will drive 40% to 50% of that mix with full pricing driving the balance. As Tim mentioned, core spot delivered rates for both, including VAPS and core pricing, were up 30% above the average. We've disclosed the absolute value associated with VAPS. But again, we don't get too deep in the core pricing. But there's been no back-off. I mean that was one of the probably questions with respect to the platform heading into an excess central stop shock, if we would see pullback or pressure on core pricing would not – we went into the pandemic with a 30% spread. We come out of the pandemic with a 30% spread. Meanwhile, we've been harvesting aspects of that spread every quarter as we move through this. So we feel quite good. And I think the other pleasing attribute to our Q1 performance was – we saw the UK really start to move pricing actually a quarter or two ago, and now we've begin to see the same acceleration in North America Storage. Albeit, it's still manual, right. This is before we've really harmonized contracts and deployed the algorithmic-based pricing tools that we have in place across the North America Modular and VAPS aspect of the revenues.

Thanks Brad. Appreciate it. However, if Tim, I guess for you, free cash flow, very, very strong in the first quarter. I did notice there was some benefit on proceeds of sale property, plant, and equipment. I'm assuming that some real estate sales – redundant real estate sales leftover from the ModSpace transaction. Could you just speak to the contribution you expect from incremental sales over the course of 2021 and 2022 if it extends that long? And just how we should think about that in accordance with your ambitious yet seemingly achievable free cash flow targets? Thanks.

Yes, it's certainly longer-term, selling real estate is not going to be a core driver of our $500 million of free cash flow. And that's a milestone that is intended to be eclipse that I would just remind folks. So yes, again it was about $11 million of core real estate sales in Q1. That's a little higher than normal. If you went back to probably what 2019, in early 2020, you would have seen some elevated levels in that magnitude on the legacy WillScot business, stemming from our integration with ModSpace. You may recall that ModSpace had over $100 million of net book value held in real estate assets into the extent those locations were redundant, we were execute – exiting those through the course of 2019 and 2020. Mobile Mini and WillScot legacy as a general rule of thumb are not in the business of owning real estate. So to the extent we evaluate a market or an MSA and we've got to know the property and we can consolidate operations. We of course try to free up that capital and redeploy it in fleet or more productive uses. So $11 million is a little higher. It will fluctuate but in this case you're also offsetting $14 million of integration costs. So net-net, I think $90 million is a very good number and again confident in our ability to drive that going into next year.

Great, thanks. Keep up the good work.

Thank you. Your next question is from Ross Gilardi of Bank of America.

Good morning, guys.

Good Morning.

WillScot has been very vocal about its continued interest in ongoing M&A and I'm wondering if the boost in your share repurchase authorization in any way was meant to signal a shift in prioritization away from M&A toward shareholder returns?

Absolutely not. It's just given the free cash flow profile. Frankly, that we've already demonstrated in our confidence in achieving this $500 million in eclipsing. It's kind of an all of the above. First priority is always take advantage of organic growth and accretive M&A. I mean, we don't comment per se on the strategy of others, but we know what we do very well. We're very happy with the geographies we're in and we'll continue to fund the growth both in office and storage primarily through M&A beyond the organic levers that I've already mentioned.

Hey Ross, this is Tim. I just think about the timing. We introduced the original authorization in the middle of a pandemic before even starting our integration with a fair amount of uncertainty because we think we've got a very predictable cash flow profile. So what's changed? Macro environment has changed. We're further along in the integration and we're able to look out several years in this business model. So it's an all of the above. We've got plenty of capacity for continued tuck-in, regional M&A, larger-scale M&A as well as supporting the repurchase authorization.

Can you guys comment at all about URI bidding for the General Finance? How do you feel about URI being further into your business with General Finance even fit with your portfolio given the Australia, and New Zealand footprint? Anything you care to comment there?

No, but – okay, URI is a valued customer and vendor and we would welcome them as a competitor. I don't really have any angst with respect to that. As I just mentioned before, we know what we do very well. We have an abundance of leverage inherent in the platform we have already and we will always stay focused on doing what we do well, where we do it. We have a great position in the UK, and North America, and I've said consistently over the last three years, little interest to expand geography beyond that.

Can you comment at all about this rent in the UK and what's really driving that?

I'm sorry can you repeat the question? I know it's UK-related.

Can you just comment a little bit more on what's driving the positive developments in the UK?

I think it’s great leadership and a very assertive commercial posture by that team and an overall tight market environment. I mean, you look at GDP forecast for the UK coming out of the Brexit and the lockdowns for both 2021 and 2022, hearing what the 5% to 6% range. Pretty tight market from both a container as well as accommodation units. We are looking at expanding our presence there and in some cases; those are coming at a higher price point. So there is a bit of a mix element there but really it comes down to leadership and our commercial posture and really supportive set of end markets there.

Thank you.

Thank you. Your next question is from Stanley Elliott of Stifel

Good morning, everybody. Thank you all for taking the question. Yours is a pretty interesting about – talking about an interesting growth environment, when we think about all of the stimulus discussions, we're looking at potentially several years of pretty substantial construction spending, does the industry have enough fleet out there ready to capitalize on that? And is it reasonable to think that we're looking at – you guys have long duration contracts to begin with, but just being able to layer that in at a much higher level?

Yes. I think the industry is well supplied. If you look at our North America Modular segment, we've got at least 10% of expansion opportunity with the fleet we have and storage is a bit tighter but it's easy to acquire storage units. As we've looked at competitors through the various M&A opportunities over time, we've tended to find that we'll be 200 basis points to 300 basis points above the competition. So, I'm not really worried about supply constraints, as these markets expand and I think your read is right. The ABI is a positive indicator with respect to what we could expect from non-resi, especially six, nine, 12 months out. And the infrastructure, depending on how and when it materializes, would just further underpin and extend that. So those are things we're watching more for 2022 than for 2021, but they're all quite exciting.

Stanley, hi, this is Tim, I would just add, if you think about what that means for our financial profile going into the next several years, I mentioned in my remarks that even as we elevate capital spending this year potentially, were actually slightly contracting the fleet net book value and we're able to do this because of the scale in our branch network. We execute in-house, in our branch network thousands and thousands of refurbishments every year. And it's that and we do it very cost-effectively we can refurbish three existing units for less than the cost of one new. So that's one of the reasons we like buying other companies and use fleet because we have the core competency to maintain that equipment at scale over a 20-year, 30-year life, and that is a significant competitive advantage in the modular business specifically, and one that if we are faced with the macroeconomic tailwinds these suggest, we'll be able to execute that again at scale in-house, maintain kind of the balance sheet around where it is today, and we can do that for a couple of years before we have to start thinking about how to introduce new supply into this market.

Great. And then in terms of the VAPS piece, talking about you rolling it out the storage or other applications, I'm assuming you guys are incubating test cases in various markets. Would love to give a little context around that and in particular, how quickly you could roll that out on a national level once you find a couple of products that you're – you feel really good about?

Yes, I would just think of the VAPS opportunity with respect to Mobile Mini in two tranches. The first is kind of that $50 million of revenue opportunity or $35 million of EBITDA that's simply applying the furniture that we already have in the WillScot systems to the Mobile Mini ground level offices. So that's straightforward. That's being piloted in the U.S. It's deployed in multiple branches right now, and will accelerate through this year. I wouldn't think of it as driving rates per se, the top level in 2021. Well, what we're really looking at is, where can we be as we head into 2022, and begin to harvest that opportunity. The second opportunity is to implement a VAPS portfolio, if you will for storage containers themselves. If you look at how customers use these containers over their 30-month average lease duration, they're building wooden shelves, plywood, often, work benches, stringing lights, et cetera. We think there is a pretty exciting opportunity to just basically replay the WillScot playbook that was initially focused on office to storage. That's going to take a bit more time, right? So we're sizing that up as I mentioned in my prepared comments and I think we are doing some VAPS, if you will, for storage today, but it's very tactical and fragmented. I think we can get more organized, and really begin to progress on that journey in 2022.

Great, guys. Thank you. Best of Luck.

Thank you. Your next question is from Phil Ng of Jefferies.

Hey, guys. The UK Storage business first blush might not have been a great fit on a core standpoint just given the lack of synergies, but the business is obviously putting up really strong results, and you're putting capital behind it. Do you see it as a better longer-term fit now that you've owned it for a little bit now under WillScott?

So I'd answer it this way, it's exactly what we do here in North America, right? It's the same business. And when we look at the portfolio, we think about okay, where can we add value as owners? And that's one where, I think, we're just beginning to scratch the surface in terms of the performance that could come out of that entity. So we love what we see. Where we see results, we'll reinvest, and that's what we're doing in the UK right now.

Excellent. And then, Tim, the free cash flow generation certainly was really strong in 1Q, even accounting for some of that real estate sales typically built over the course of the year. I think last quarter you were implying maybe $350 million free cash flow this year. How are you thinking about that now for 2021, and does that give you confidence to have a bigger appetite for buybacks this year?

Let me put it this way, so I think the free cash flow profile as a rule of thumb mirrors some of the same margin fluctuation that you would see in the business, because it is volume-driven. So it wouldn't surprise me if CapEx ticked up in Q2 and Q3, for example. And then, you would expect Q4 to be a higher, both margin and free cash flow quarter. So there is some nuance as you progress through the year sequentially, and yes very comfortable with that $350 million run rate, and whether it's this year or heading into next year, there's certainly upside. And this is consistent with our progression toward that $500 million free cash flow run rate that we expect toward the end of next year.

What about on the buyback?

On the buyback, yes, well, we expanded it, and it's for the reasons I mentioned. When we introduced the original buyback, it was – we just closed the merger. We're in the middle of the pandemic. So there were some elements of uncertainty even then. And we're further along. I think we've got a very good view of where the macro backdrop is headed for the next couple of years. We've seen three quarters now of the prolific cash generation in the portfolio, and we're poised to execute our SAP cut-overs. All these things factor into our thinking from a capital allocation standpoint.

Okay, great. Thanks a lot, guys. Appreciate it.

Thank you. Your next question is from Kathryn Thompson of Thompson Research.

Hi. Thank you for taking my questions today. Supply chain has been a big focus along the construction value chain, and with so many businesses in the U.S., and you potentially could be a pretty significant beneficiary, how have you sized up the opportunity in terms of puts and takes of how this impacts your business, not only now, but structurally, as we look forward?

Kathryn, this is Tim. I'll start. At the simplest level, I break down our top line, its volume, price, and value-added products and services. And I think we've got a playbook in place for the latter two that have been demonstrating very consistent and very strong results. And we've got unique visibility in those to look out several years. So if we're faced with the type of increases in non-resi activity that you're alluding to, it's only supportive of those trends. And in the case of value-added products and services, there are our opportunities to expand the scope of that offering. What gets me really excited is what we can do with volumes potentially in that environment. We've always targeted that low-single digit volume growth range because it compounds very nicely with what we're doing on the pricing in value-added products side of things. And we think we're in environment right now where we can deliver that. If it accelerates, then, of course, we can participate in that growth. And to Stanley's question, if we're participating in that growth, well, I don't think we see the same supply chain constraints that may be you see in other sectors of the economy because we have 10 points of utilization available in the fleet that we own today, and we've got the in-house refurbishment capability to put those assets to work. So look, we'll see what happens here from a legislative standpoint. But even absent that, the backdrop that we see right now is quite robust. We're excited with where we are as a business to take advantage of it, and we think will even be in better position once we get through the SAP cut-over here.

Thanks. Helpful. One clarification, and if you addressed this, apologies if I missed, but the impact of the Texas freeze, any meaningful impact to you guys?

Yes, as we talked about in the – talking about the operating environment, January and February, from a delivery standpoint, those were a little choppier. It was really once we got into March, I think we probably had some impact from the Texas Freeze, for example. But it was really the March activity levels that picked up, heading it here into April, as well as our ongoing reforecast process that we go through as a business down to the branch level. They gave us confidence in the change in outlook. So yes, there was definitely some disruption early in the quarter. And as you would expect typically things, at least on the non-resi side of the equation, tend to pick up second half of Q1, heading into Q2, and Q3. And well, the interesting thing about this portfolio – and I think back to Hurricane Harvey, for example, as an example, that impacted Texas specifically. It's a very big deal for that market in terms of the supply and demand implications, but it was like less than 1% or it was like 1% of our unit on rent portfolio. So while these are significant events in the scope of our portfolio, they're not all that material.

Okay, that's helpful. And a final clarification on CapEx, how much of the CapEx is for refurbishment, or the units?

Yes, as a general rule of thumb, Kathryn, I think, you can assume, about half of the CapEx budget is going to go into refurbishment and conversion of existing assets, and then about 25% would be going into value-added products, and the remaining 25% would be going into new assets. And these are targeted purchases for very specific product and market combinations where we don't see other alternatives to supply that market. And then if you step back, as I said in Q1, we are – we did slightly contracted fleet net book value. So, even when we're buying a new asset, it's probably just replacing another asset that reached the end of its life. So we're not expanding the fleet. We're just managing that fleet composition. And overall, we're tightening things up a little bit.

Okay, So no real change in the mix versus prior trend...

No, that's correct. That's correct.

Okay. Great. Thank you so much.

Thank you. Your next question is from Sam England of Berenberg.

Hi, guys. Thanks for taking the questions. The first one, I just wondered if you're seeing an opportunity to use more third-party rentals to complement the VAPS offering going forward, especially as you look to expand on the storage side?

Yes, there is an aspect of the modular VAPS that is absolutely third-party services. An example would be fencing, penalized fencing, toilets, some generators here and there. So it's been a steady part of that portfolio. We've just focused all of our leverage, management horsepower on growing the owned assets aspect of that. Mobile Mini, you'll recall, also had a managed-service aspect to their business, which was that same kind of lease and release of services. So, we think it's a very interesting complement to what we do. We are laser-focused on providing turnkey fully VAPS modular storage – and modular office and storage to all customers right and I view that managed services as an incremental service opportunity. So, yes, it's an interesting aspect of our business. We're just laser-focused on making sure the first thing we do is deliver office and storage to every job site and we fully furnish both.

Great. Thanks, and then the follow-up. I was just wondering if you're seeing any attractive markets outside of the construction space at the moment where you could expand over the next year or two, particularly thinking around things like education, healthcare events, the more so pandemic-affected subsectors.

Yes, and I think the answer is yes, and it's across almost everything you mentioned. We mentioned in the last call we're achieving these delivery rates and this unit on rent stability despite what's been a pretty significant nonresidential headwind in North America. So we've seen gains across the sectors and Tim did mention about 25% of our capital goes into new fleet, that's very focused on new specific assets. A great example are those that are on the front page of our Investor Day. And these products can help us serve dense markets. We can stack these three high, their panelized, so you can stack them end-to-end and side-to-side as much as you would like. That's the significant focus of – although it's a modest aspect of our new capital. So we think we can expand the products, both the core assets themselves, and the VAPS that can take us into new aspects of all of those markets.

Great, thanks very much.

Thank you. Our final question today comes from Sameer Goenka from Deutsche Bank.

Hi, thanks for taking my question. Just a quick one. So under VAPS front, you have talked about an internal target of 400. I'm just wondering what are the levers to get there and what would be the way to take it even higher, I don't know if you have like higher number in mind?

We do have higher numbers in mind. Yes, in simple terms of think of the $337 average rate over the deliveries in the last 12 months. That's across a vast set of territories in the U.S. and Canada and Mexico. We've got territories and even full cities that are already operating at 400, so you've got a distribution where several of the reps, 20%, 30%, or more are already above that 400. So we know it's achievable. It's the social proof is in our house, if you will. And so what we're always doing is kind of lifting the tail, if you will. Meanwhile, when we set the $400 target, it was based upon the portfolio we had at that time, achieving an 80% penetration, if you will, making sure we will deliver 80% of our units fully furnished with the offering we had at the time. That's been the primary driver as we've increased to 337. Mind you, the sequential lift was 8%. So you can do the math and understand our actual delivered rates are even north of that. So we've got reps that do it consistently. We've got full areas that do it consistently. We are also excited about eclipsing that if you will, as we've extended the VAPS portfolio to include like I would say social-distance-friendly cubicles with higher walls, as an example, more data packages, et cetera. So we're always striking that balance of make sure we finish what we started, which is get furniture penetration 80%, that will yield the 400. And then as we add more VAPS to the portfolio, if you will, that needs to provide incremental value.

Great, thank. Thank you.
